[FONT=verdana,geneva]Head coach Wade Phillips said the Cowboys’ training staff has been keeping tabs on Romo and monitoring his health. Romo might not be 100 percent currently, but has been progressing to the point where his status for Sunday’s game is not in question. [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana,geneva]Romo did walk by a group of reporters before the team meeting, kept his head down but did say, rather sarcastically, “I’m feeling great. I feel like a hundred bucks.” [/FONT]

Romo feeling like $100

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo returned to Valley Ranch on Christmas Day a lot better after battling an illness on Wednesday.


Romo is expected to practice later this afternoon after missing Wednesday's workout. Romo walked through the halls to his quarterbacks meeting carrying a Gatorade (might be having dehydration issues) and was asked if he was feeling better.


"Oh yeah," Romo said. "I feel like 100 dollars."


Romo was battling flu-like symptoms and was sent home by the team with medicine on Thursday.

I keep reading reporters, bloggers, whoever constantly re-analyzing his comment and are seemingly clueless for the motivation behind it.

He doesn't feel well at all. People should get over it already (pun intended).

My goodness...
